First response nails it.
Some skin conditions require specific clinical micromanagement. Do the job properly mate, call the experts.
Except its only blackheads.Such as?I highly doubt you're old enough to have a teenage daughter based on some of your posts.

What do you mean black spots? Like a mole, a blackhead or what? themajormayorBlacjheads I guees. Just little small black marks were the pimple used to be. Apparently its not a serious thing otherwise they would not have let it go.

Maybe you're talking about something else.

She is panicking because she wants clear skin or near clear skin and she said it's getting worse.
As stated earlier a dermatologist cant be beat but may I ask is your daughter white, yellow, brown or dark skinned cause I may know what the dark spots are depending on your answer.Diablo-BDark Skinned.
You're talking about yourself....right?LJS9502_basic
Dudes get acne too, so it's safe admit it. My brother's was in terrible shape in the first few years in high school.

Except I could not have been talking to myself since guys barely ever really give to craps about their skin unless of course it's serious. girls tend to panic more.[QUOTE="psymon100"]Except its only blackheads.First response nails it.

Well. Why not take her to a dermatolagist anyway?
If she is 'panicking' some advice from a suitably qualified professional may calm her nerves?

I KIND of did that already. but a more direct skin doctor might be better i suppose.[QUOTE="jimkabrhel"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]You're talking about yourself....right?FreddyJeffery

[QUOTE="FreddyJeffery"][QUOTE="psymon100"]Except its only blackheads. Then do a little of your own research and figure it out. Otherwise, do the smart thing about this medical issue and take her to a medical professional. Which I already did, and I already did.First response nails it.

It sounds like acne scars. Is she popping them? If she is, that's why but I'm no expert (I was a teenager though), so talk to a Dermatologist for an expert opinion.
If she is popping them, then she needs to do it correctly. I think there's a way involving toothpaste or she could just wait it out. After all, she's a teenager and all teenagers have that problem.

Justin Beiber is a male?[QUOTE="Diablo-B"]As stated earlier a dermatologist cant be beat but may I ask is your daughter white, yellow, brown or dark skinned cause I may know what the dark spots are depending on your answer.FreddyJefferyDark Skinned.
Ok I have the same issue. Nothing to worry about. Its a natural characteristic for some people with brown or dark tones of skin. Its called hyper-pigmentation, which is a darkening of the skin area that has been cut or damaged. Its temporary and clears up after a few weeks or a couple months depending on how bad it is. Everyone's skin is different.
The best solution is to avoid the pimples in the first place. But there are skin lightening and complexion evening cremes that can speed up the removal of those dark spots. Im not sure which is the best but I know my mother used to use Ambi Fade Creme.
For me I just wash my face with a mild oil removal facial wash and use "Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion". Its about $25 for the big bottle, lasts between 2 - 3 months and is the best moisturizer I have found. Also change you pillow case often, work out, eat a balanced diet and drink that water.
These tips worked for me but do your daughter a favor and take her to a dermatologist, he/she can give her the best advice for her skin type.

Isn't oil remover creme more dangerous since darker skiined people if not mistaen, have naturally oily skin therefore, causing damage? Also, is there the difference between the cheap and expensive kinds cause not spending that much on something to what to me seems simple and not worth panicking about.[QUOTE="Diablo-B"][QUOTE="FreddyJeffery"] Dark Skinned.FreddyJeffery

Also, is there the difference between the cheap and expensive kinds cause not spending that much on something to what to me seems simple and not worth panicking about. I didnt say oil removing cream, I said oil removing facial wash. I use one without salycic acid or benzyl peroxide cause those are too strong for me. I use one that has beeswax to absorb the oil but I dont remember the name off the top my head and Im not at home. As far as facial moisturizers go if you have oily skin then you want a moisturizer that A) doesnt have oil B) will keep your skin from drying. Clinique is the best I found and I tried lots. And $25 for a 3 month supply is a pretty good price.[QUOTE="FreddyJeffery"][QUOTE="Diablo-B"]Isn't oil remover creme more dangerous since darker skiined people if not mistaen, have naturally oily skin therefore, causing damage?

Dude, just take her to a doctor - don't ask the internet for medical or dermatological advice.[QUOTE="FreddyJeffery"][QUOTE="themajormayor"]What do you mean black spots?

For the facial wash yea, that would be like $7 - $8 (sadly I can't remember the name till I get home). For the Moisturizer "Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion", only certain department store have it like Macy's. I usually order mine from online at Clinique.comDiablo-BOh one of those rare kinds. Cause I actually forgot Macy's existed until you said it. although in my area men aren't usually seen walking in their.
